The Adam Cole vs Pat McAfee Match Wasn't Rehearsed!?

This past week saw a match at Takeover that was great. 

The surprising part was that it involved a pre-show host by the name of Pat McAfee AND the fact that it wasn't rehearsed. 

At least, that's what it is reported. 

Earlier in the week, Wrestling Observer Radio and Dave Meltzer (from Cagesideseats) said that the reason why the bout wasn't rehearsed is that quote: 

"Just went in there and did it because they knew Pat was good and they know Adam is great."

Something really interesting to put out in the side, in an interview with ESPN, McAfee talked about how he perfectly nailed the Swanton during his bout with Adam Cole: 

"Jeff Hardy came to my studio a year ago to be a part of the show, he and Matt. And we actually did a Swanton Bomb contest onto a trampoline that we had built in the office, off of a ladder. 

And he gave me a high score, rave reviews. He taught me that. And that just seemed like the right thing to do at the time."

Samoa Joe Voices King Shark In Suicide Squad: Kill All The Justice League!? 

Backlash 2017 | WWE


So. DC Fandome happened and it was nothing but exciting announcements as a fan of all things comic book entertainment. 

One of those exciting announcements was Rocksteady's Suicide Squad: Kill All The Justice League CGI trailer. 

In it, it had a familiar individual that voiced the sh*t talking, King Shark. 

That individual is current Monday Night RAW colour commentator, Samoa Joe. 

Joe himself confirmed it on Twitter. 

I will be definitely rubbing my hands like Birdman once the game comes out in 2022 on the next-gen consoles as well as PC. 

When's Jimmy Uso Coming Back?? 

One half of The Usos, Jimmy Uso has been out of in-ring action since April. 

It's been 4 months and we got an update regarding an-ring return for Uso. 

In an interview with Table Talk, Jimmy Uso pretty much said that he's eyeing for a January 2021 return.  

Keith Lee Is Getting New Theme Music!?

WWE NXT: Marzo 18, 2020 | WWE


From Fightful Select (Cagesideseats), The reason why Keith Lee got some generic stock music as his theme song is that WWE is trying to tell its superstars to stop using CFO$ produced songs. 

WWE owns 50% of CFO$'s music created for WWE. This WWE/CFO$ situation is worth its own separate article and I ain't going too long in this piece. 

Sticking to Keith Lee, a reliable site when it comes to the music side of WWE, Arenataping tweeted out saying that Lee will have new music with lyrics. 

All I can say is, I hope it's better than what they got. 

Paul Ellering On Going To Manage AOP Once Again. 

Paul Ellering | WWE


Paul Ellering recently spoke with the Two Man Power Trip Podcast. 

In that discussion, the WWE Hall of Famer brought up the story of how he was about to manage AOP again (from WrestlingInc): 

"The idea was to bring me back in, but then this corona stuff came up," Ellering said earlier this month. "Then the guys got hurt and they were out a while, so everything got put on the back shelf and I don't know where it sits now."

That would've been straight flames. 


What do you think about the news I just reported and follow me on the tweets @omartheplayaguy. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE RAW 7/1/19 | My Coherent Review

My first RAW review of 2019 and surprisingly, this show was decent. Now, would RAW put on decent shows in the coming weeks or months? Probably not but I hope that's the case. Now, usually on my RAW and Smackdown Live reviews, I give my thoughts on what's good, what's ok and what bad ( click here if you curious as to how the format looks like). However, since this is the new year, I'm gonna get rid of that and instead just put my in-depth thoughts just like my PPV reviews. Without further ado, on with the review.  Opening Segment The show itself started off with a brawl between Seth Rollins and Bobby Lashley that lasted for a very short period of time. After that’s done, the opening segment started with John Cena and cuts a promo on how he’s gonna earn his golden ticket to Wrestlemania by entering in this year’s Royal Rumble match.  Out came Drew McIntyre and he said that Cena’s accomplishments is what Drew cares about. He then went on how he’s b...

The 5 News Week: The Current Plan For Eva Marie According To Reports.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor pro wrestling news, rumours and spoilers of the week that I don't have time to do it separately.  Without further ado, here are the 5 news week.  What’s Going On With The ShowBuzz Daily Website!? Dave Meltzer on the Wrestling Observer has expressed concern regarding Showbuzz Daily not posting the daily TV rating due to technical issues stating (from Cagesideseats ) "all wrestling companies, TV companies, sports stations, etc. looked to that site for numbers.” The owner of the Showbuzz Daily entity, Mitch Metcalf, took to the blue hell that is Twitter and said that they can't add content to the site anymore over a shutdown that isn't clear as to what caused the shutdown itself.  Metcalf went on to highlight that due to operating the site without generating revenue, the cost and time to bring back the site has made him think about the future of ShowBuzz Daily.  Is...

WWE Super Showdown 2020 | My Coherent Review.

Super showdown 2020 was dull, boring and even frustrating at times. The two previous Saudi shows from last year were surprisingly okay but this was just a flavourless taste in my mouth and this is coming from the resident WWE shill. By far, the worst PPV of 2020 so far.  PRESHOW: The Viking Raiders vs The O.C. In Luke Gallows And Karl Anderson.  A skippable match that we've seen for the gazillionth time. Yay for unwanted repetition! The O.C wins. Cool.  MAIN-SHOW: AJ Styles vs. Andrade vs. Bobby Lashley vs. Erick Rowan vs. R-Truth vs. Rey Mysterio. Gauntlet Match for the Tuwaiq Trophy.  R Truth and Bobby Lashley started off this match and Truth wins via a roll-up. Lashley then attacks R Truth (like we've not seen that spot before) to which out came the second opponent of the night, the returning Andrade and the way that encounter ended was odd yet somehow not horrible.  Both men hit each other with their heads and Truth pins the guy to keep fight...
